Scrapping all the WAV and MP3 files that I had ripped earlier due to the fact that there are way too many corrupted/bad files from the previous CD/DVD reader/burner unit that was defective.

Yeah for me.....:trisad:
 
Everything has been deleted from both external hard-drives and I will begin (again) the fun that is called "ripping"..... :trirolleyes:
 
Sorry to hear it Kirbmeister certainly will cut into your reading time for the next few but on the bright side you will be able to listen to alot more of your music collection to pass the time.
 
MY fault for not realizing the burner was bad. I'm in the Time Out corner for the next decade or two.
you are such a nice person to take the blame,now put that man to work.i'm sure he would love the idea of burning calories while ripping,LOL.its not that easy Kirb.

Kirby!!!!! Now's the time order more gear!!!!! :D:D:D:D:D:D:D
 
Ummm...you wanna buy a HD already filled with music??

Sorry...I couldn't resist after that long winded post about a newbie.:tribiggrin:

Seriously though, I'm sorry you have to go through the ripping process again.

Try Audiograbber. Softjock Rick has a really nice tutorial on his web site.
 
How did you find out they were bad?

Played a few here and there and started noticing some very disturbing noises... :trisad: There would be no way that I would be able to cherry pick through the whole library, so I decided the best way was to "start over" with the new burner that was installed. Doing this way, will make me feel safer...

I was/am using Audiograbber...but we had defective components that fouled up the files.... :(

How much for that HD? :trirolleyes::triwink: :tribiggrin:
 
Kirb,
Don't feel bad even with the equipment firing on all cylinders glitches can occur. I posted about it and the advantage for me is that for me it's not time critical to review my rips and library. You guys are stuck between a rock and a hard place.
 
Easy CD-DA Extractor I Use
will show CRC error details and any errors,
it will show you and wont go on till the faulty CD/DVD is replaced
 
A new cd/dvd drive is a new piece of gear, isn't it? And pretty cost effective, compared to other pieces of gear. Sorry to hear of your troubles. Losing all the time invested so far, bites.
